This is a lovely home which checked all the boxes for a 3 generation beach vacation. It's close enough to the beach to allow the littles to walk by themselves (with an adult waiting a block away at the beach!). It was totally ready for us even though we arrived late. Has a lovely kitchen, plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms, and 2 sets of washer/dryers. I didn't realize how many steps were involved - we had 3 floors separated by 15-step staircases (whew!). Window air conditioners were a surprise to the kiddos who have grown up with central air - it didn't make a difference to the overall comfort. Our contact was Michele DeRose, the quintessential realtor contact who was endlessly patient and responsive (she offered extensive suggestions in advance for local shopping and restaurants and she sent over tablecloths on Seafood boil night!). She made all the difference. Our only complaint would be the beach badges: at $95 each and designed to be literally pinned to a hat/cover-up/bathing suit, I can say that Ocean Grove appears to be making a profit on a necessary but flimsy method of monitoring the beach. It's easy to wind up paying for lost badges (one, in our case). It was a wonderful week and we hope to return in the future.
